The current global situation is worrying: In the face of the omnipresent climate crisis, financial crises, social and political unrest, technology and information overload, we need to find our bearings and take action. How can this be achieved? This training provides strategies for successfully dealing with ambiguity and uncertainty. It highlights the aspects of mental agility, self-awareness, emotional awareness and situational awareness. Mental agility makes it possible to accept uncertainty and react flexibly to new situations. Self-knowledge opens up the space to reflect on one's own values and convictions in order to better understand one's own reactions. Control over strong emotions prevents impulsive actions. This allows situations to be realistically analyzed and appropriate decisions to be made.

For managers, the rule is: intervene as little as possible, but as much as necessary in a conflict involving their own employees. As a starting point, it is important to also recognize hidden conflicts and assess their severity. The theoretical basis for this is provided by Friedrich Glasl's model of the nine stages of conflict escalation. It clearly shows how conflicts can escalate if timely intervention is neglected. For each escalation stage, managers will learn various methods of conflict resolution - from the promotion of independent conflict resolution to mediation and arbitration as well as to the intervention of power.

Conducting Termination Meetings

Let's face it, managers often know in advance which conversations with employees will be challenging. This could be due to an employee's recent inappropriate behavior or perhaps a sudden, unannounced absence. Managers often hesitate to directly address criticism during these talks to avoid upsetting the employee.  However, in challenging conversations, transparent communication and an open attitude are essential. Some managers also struggle to remain respectful and keep a cool head in difficult situations, which hinders constructive dialogue and successful conflict resolution.
